I think they are cute in an ugly sort of way--they look like miniature Ostriches.

Of course I don't nescessarily want one, though my neighbor has them! I spoke with that neighbor (who happens to be my MIL) and she said she'd take any chicks I hatch out--so they've already got a new home.

In exchange I'm going to get a few muscovy ducklings from her (she's got different bloodlines than I do)....so that's all settled.

Now I just need my birds to step up & start laying!

I haven't shipped my partners eggs yet probably can't till Thursday is that ok or should I wait till Monday? I haven't shipped eggs before so I don't know how long it takes for them to get to Indiana or how to package them safely.

I'd wait and ship fresh eggs on Monday. Sending them Priority Mail on Thursday gives a big chance of them spending the weekend at the PO.

Naked Necks...Uh uh!! I sorry Julie

Hey I get what I get. The chickie pics of them are super cute, but I know me come winter I'll be wanting to wrap their necks up and fret over frostbite.

In the winter , especially on bitter windy days I stand at the window and watch the flock and moan about ..dont' they know it's cold, why dont' they stay in the coop where it's cozy. I can see me with naked necks...OMG, they've taken their scarves off again what are they doing...lol

Julie, I don't know if you got one or not but I do have two NN hens.I don't think there was one in your eggs but there is a possibilty.I didn't think about you being so far north,however I do know of several people who have hatched out chick's from my egg's that were NN's since the gene is dominate.Mine do lay nice large brown egg's though.
